Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup Water
  • 2 box Refrigerated pie crust
  • ½ Stick butter, cut into small cubes
  • 1 ⅓ cup Sugar, for berries
  • 2 Bags frozen blackberries
  • ¼ cup Sugar, to sprinkle on crust before baking
  • ½ cup Flour

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F. Line a 12-inch cast-iron skillet with one pie crust, pressing it into the corners and up the sides.
  • Prick the crust with a fork to prevent it from bubbling up during baking. Bake for 7 minutes, then set aside.
  • Increase the oven temperature to 375°F. In a large bowl, whisk together melted butter, 1 1/3 cups granulated sugar, and flour until well combined.
  • Add the blackberries to the bowl and toss until they're evenly coated with the sugar mixture.
  • Pour the berry mixture into the prepared skillet, spreading it out evenly.
  • Sprinkle a little water over the top of the berries.
  • Roll out the second pie crust and place it over the filling, pressing the edges to seal.
  • Use a pastry brush to dot the top of the crust with small pieces of butter.
  • Sprinkle 1/4 cup granulated sugar over the top of the crust.
  • Cut a few slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape during baking.
  • Place the skillet in the oven and bake for about 45 minutes, or until the edges are bubbly and the crust is golden brown.

How Are Blackberry Cobbler And Blackberry Crisp Different?

Skillet Blackberry Cobbler

Cobbler is a fruit dessert with a top crust of pie or biscuit dough and no bottom crust. Crisp is a fruit desserts similar to cobbler, topped with a brown sugar streusel, often with rolled oats. In Alberta, the terms are used interchangeably.

How To Fix A Runny Blackberry Cobbler?

While cobblers are meant to be juicy, very ripe fruit can lead to excess liquid, resulting in a soupy cobbler with a soggy top. To prevent this, try adding one to two tablespoons of cornstarch to the filling.

Why Is Blackberry Cobbler Called So?

The origins of the term “cobbler” in reference to a type of dessert are unclear, but it’s thought to date back to around 1859. One theory is that it’s connected to the archaic word “cobeler,” which means “wooden bowl.”
